How can I exit a nodeJS script from within the script?

node.js

Solution

you can exit the script by calling process.exit() (see http://nodejs.org/docs/v0.5.4/api/process.html#process.exit)

Problem

Right now I have a nodeJS script that sets up a database for me. Whenever I run it in my command line, I need to ctrl-C to exit the script. I'm assuming that there is some kind of command within nodeJS to have it exit on its own when it's done, but I can't seem to find any such command by doing searches on the interwebz. Does anybody happen to know if this is possible, and if so, what the command is?
